ricsim88 244 Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 The signature edition suite hasn’t been released yet…so it won’t happen until it’s out. I guess the Detroit symphony got a special permission to perform it. As far as recording it, my best guess is that it will be with JW or Lockhart and the BPO. But for some reason I’m not sure Williams wants it out there. At this rate I wouldn’t be surprised if the Obi Wan theme didn’t come out first.

Bespin 8,481 Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 This motive is included in the Finale. Yes, I know that's a cheap trick! But remember ROTS's Finale is also longer than the ones from TFA and TLJ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrotherSound 2,242 Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 It’s four movements: I. Psalm of the Sith II. The Rise of Skywalker III. Rey and Ben IV. The Speeder Chase 2 hours ago, Andy said: No Anthem of Evil? The first movement is Psalm of the Sith, which uses that theme, as well as Kylo Ren’s theme.

Bespin 8,481 Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Correct me if I'm wrong, but to this day, we don't have the score of this reworked suite. It's maybe why there's no official re-recording yet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Mark 3,631 Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 One of Williams most beautiful themes of all time. This seems just like the OST track played slower. I wonder if JW made some tweaks for the upcoming June 23 performance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy 4,127 Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 I agree, KM. It's probably why I'm one of a handful of people who enjoys the film. I can't separate the two. 8 hours ago, BB-8 said: Wow, slow! But still very lovely. I don't mind them lingering a bit. Also, a perfect lead-in to the Main Title March. When I listen to the score, I place TROS at the very beginning, to serve as an "Overture" and get my ears warmed up and balanced for the score proper to start with the fanfare blast. bollemanneke and Falstaft 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artguy360 1,843 Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 The victory theme in particular is played very slow. It's little odd, like the music is played at .8 speed or something. I don't think it works as well compared to the OST recording. eitam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB-8 3,478 Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 No baton for this piece...like Blomstedt? Otherwhise a Soltiesque rowing technique. He takes it like Mahler or Bruckner.

eitam 364 Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 The first part of the piece (the friendship theme) shines better with the slower tempo. But the second part (victory theme), yeah, that's too slow. Courtney Sees Ghosts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s right: one musician shared their part, and it was clear that it goes into something else at the spot where the victory theme first appears in ‘Farewell’, but we just don’t know yet what that something else is, or how long it continues. artguy360 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete 907 Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 The Forest Battle and The Flag Parade - I would love to hear those live. I even had a dream once in which Williams conducted The Forest Battle in a park near the house I grew up in. And I wish Williams would record his Flag Parade concert version, and of course the latest suite as well. Will he ever revisit Star Wars for more albums?

If you're reading this, do for the latter two trilogies what you did for the first one: a compilation of concert works. Please! I heard the Flag Parade live twenty or so years ago (not conducted by Williams). It is an adrenaline-fueled piece, particularly live. It has the obvious nods to Rozsa, but it is its own thing--I would say darker. less regal, more gritty than the Charioteers. pete 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would add The Spark. I wonder what goes through his head with the SW suites. II, III, and VIII are the only singles. I kind of see that with II (though Chase through Coruscant would be great). III offered all sorts of possibilities (Grievious, Anakin's Betrayal and Dark Deeds). Sometimes I think he needs more self-confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
